The Left’s Negative Campaigning Helped the Right Win in Sweden

  1. As a vegan I have to say that the Swedish left lost the election the day they thought that letting a third world horde into their country was a good idea.

  2. And I reckon many media’s insistence on clickbait dichotomies isn’t helping much either.

    Must be nice to make a living from the sidelines, rather than actually helping or living it, though.

  3. The Sweden Democrats are literal neo-Nazis and so are the people who voted for them. What is the problem with calling them that? There is no point pretending they are nice people in the hope they will vote for your party. That’s like telling Hitler he has a nice moustache and hoping he doesn’t invade your country.

    Edit: take it easy Sweden Democrat voters who are downvoting me, I’m white too! Isn’t that like friendly fire for you guys?

  4. I wonder who the immigrants voted for

    On one hand the Left let you in, but on the other hand they are godless feminists.

    And the Right hate you, but at least they all eat meat and might go to church.

  5. I tried to avoid the campaigning as much as I could, but I got ads on YouTube, and the only party that did attack ads there (and basically only attack ads) was SD. Everyone else talked about wanting to fight crime, being for the nature, and improve the “welfare” (your generic stuff), while SD had ads like: “this and that politician won’t debate us!”, like some internet edge lord, so this is a bit surprising to hear.

    SD also did some obvious dog whistling ads, but those weren’t in their own name, of course.

  6. Reminds me of Hillary Clinton **trying to be President and represent all Americans** calling everyone who supported Trump (roughly half of American voters) as deplorable.
